Worldwide semiconductor revenue totaled $136.1 billion in first half of 2008, rising 5 percent year-over-year. Fabless revenue totaled $27.3 billion in the first half of 2008, rising 12 percent year-over-year. As a result first half fabless revenue equated to 20 percent of the first half 2008 semiconductor sales total.
